Bled Strategic Forum 2024

A World of Parallel Realities

The 19th International Conference of the Bled Strategic Forum will be held in Bled on 2 and 3 September. This year’s event will be entitled “A World of Parallel Realities.”

The aim of this year’s conference is to introduce new, innovative approaches to the programme and encourage young people to play a bigger part.

In 2006, the Bled Strategic Forum (BSF) was launched with a vision to bring together decision-makers from different fields, to encourage open debate on contemporary political, security and development challenges, and to search for new ideas and solutions.

Bled Strategic Forum is a project of the Government of the Republic of Slovenia. It is organized jointly by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Slovenia and the Centre for European Perspective.

In all the years since, we have had the privilege of meeting many new friends and partners and have built new relationships in many different fields. The complex and interdisciplinary challenges of today’s globalised world require comprehensive solutions, which the Bled Strategic Forum and its participants have never been afraid of bringing up and discussing. As such, the Bled Strategic Forum gives a voice to differing positions, views and understandings of the topics that require the attention of the wider international community.

With the ever-changing global situation, the Bled Strategic Forum remains determined to strive towards innovative thinking and forward-looking visions. It is our hope that the Forum will continue to grow, evolve and influence various policy agendas and solutions of tomorrow.
